    So I want to sample this can again, Folks,

    So anybody that wants a dab to scan can.

    What's the best paper to dab? Glossy or matte?

    I hate paint.

      Well, even though this Servi-Car has 45 cubic inches of high compression madness, I won't be racing it, much, so green is AOK by me. Besides, the WLA saved way more lives than it lost, green should be lucky.

        I paint my bikes green purposely, and I don't use "Gremlin Bells" either...

          PS: There's bells hanging all over the shop's screen door, but I didn't know they had a name;
          Now I can declare them an addition to the American Motorcycle Idiom decor.

          Just like my fishing tackle lamp pulls.

            I recall BUYING paint samples from Antique Motorcycle Supply in Michigan. The first samples I got were in the late '70s and approx. a. 2" square of paint on a quality manila type paper that didn't bleed the color sample. The second sample I got from AMS was near their final days and was a blob on absorbent paper, and useless. In their earlier days they sold quarts of paint and the grapevine said they did a good job of matching to original paint. . . How would anyone alive today know that a modern mixed color is correct to a color made 70 years ago; or even 5 years ago?

            P.S. I wrote this reply earlier, Tom but didn't post it for some reason.
